FordRocks1 Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 Ok, here's the deal- I was really close to pulling the trigger yesterday by buying another person's used Gunmetal Razors but now I am thinking about going with the Black Razors to keep the whole all Black theme on my SGT but before I pull the trigger on these set that I have found on ebay, what offset should I be buying to clear the GT500 brakes that I am planning on installing after the wheels? I don't want to run into the problem of buying a certain set of wheels and them not being able to fit, in the GT500 for sale section, there is a guy selling his Black Razors but he's only getting rid of them because his can not fit the GT500 brakes in which I'm trying to avoid. On the flip side I can get the Gunmetal Razors in 20 inches with Toyo tires pretty cheap that has only been on this person's car for a month and he does have the GT500 brake upgrade so I know for sure his will clear them but I'm torn between Black or gunmetal.... Mods, can we start a Pics of your wheels in the SGT section like the folks in the GT500 section? Ok, here are some pics with either gunmetal or black wheels- these are not my pics and got them online, i am only using them as a visual aid-if they are of someones car on here and would like for me to remove them please PM and I will do so.

FordRocks1 Posted March 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 I don't no what the off-set is but the gun metal gray gets my vote. Just consulted with the boss (wifey) and she too is voting for the gun metal ones to match the stripes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am liking that set up....with reguards to tire and wheel size. I just typed in Yahoo and Google images and all types of SGT pics popped up with Razors- Man, for all of the folks on here with Razors its pretty quiet in getting some kind of answer concerning the right offset to clear Brembos........

FWIW, 20 inch rims also require a low profile tire which will increase road noise and they are less forgiving should you hit a sharp edged pothole in the road.

Robert Kiser 3339 Posted March 29, 2009 Report Share Posted March 29, 2009 when I bought razors for my car all the wheels where 24 offset. So your answer for the front is 24 offset. I sold two of the wheels and bought 40 offset for the rear to tuck them in more in the rear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
